Paying for subscriptions often means paying in USD, GBP, EUR, or other currencies than your own. With traditional corporate cards, that means transaction fees.

It's common practice for major banks and corporate card providers to charge international transaction fees of around 3% for every transaction. The best way to avoid these fees is to work with a card provider who consumes the foreign currency fee within their costs, such as Cape, and doesn’t charge it back to the cardholder.
An international transaction or FX fee is a surcharge on your credit card bill that occurs when you make a purchase in a foreign currency. Most banks and business credit card issuers charge between 1 to 3% on foreign currency transactions.
The international transaction fee consists of a currency conversion fee, charged by the network such as Visa or Mastercard, and an issuer fee, charged by your card provider.
Cape is one example of a card provider that does not charge an international transaction fee to its customers. If you make regular payments in a foreign currency, such as USD, getting a Cape card could save you up to 3% of each transaction on foreign currency conversions alone.
